God rest ye merry, gentlemen,Let nothing you dismay;Remember Christ, our Savior,Was born on Christmas day,To save us all from Satan's powerWhen we were gone astray.O tidings of comfort and joy,Comfort and joy,O tidings of comfort and joy.In Bethlehem, in Jewry,This blessed Babe was born,And laid within a manger,Upon this blessed morn;That which His Mother Mary,Did nothing take in scorn.O tidings of comfort and joy,Comfort and joy,O tidings of comfort and joy.From God our Heavenly Father,A blessed Angel came;And unto certain ShepherdsBrought tidings of the same:How that in Bethlehem was bornThe Son of God by Name.SongtexteO tidings of comfort and joy,Comfort and joy,O tidings of comfort and joy."Fear not," then said the Angel,"let nothing you affright,This day is born a SaviourOf pure Virgin bright,To free all those who trust in HimFrom Satan's power and might."O tidings of comfort and joy,Comfort and joy,O tidings of comfort and joy.The shepherds at those tidingsRejoiced much in mind,And left their flocks a-feeding,In tempest, storm, and wind:And went to Bethlehem straightway,The Son of God to find.O tidings of comfort and joy,Comfort and joy,O tidings of comfort and joy.And when they came to BethlehemWhere our dear Savior lay,They found Him in a manger,Where oxen feed on hay;His Mother Mary kneeling down,Unto the Lord did pray.O tidings of comfort and joy,Comfort and joy,O tidings of comfort and joy.Now to the Lord sing praises,All you within this place,And with true love and brotherhoodEach other now embrace;This holy tide of ChristmasAll other doth deface.O tidings of comfort and joy,Comfort and joy,O tidings of comfort and joy Aus Songtexte Mania
